Black and Green Olive Tapenade

From the kitchen of Carly

Briny olives and capers anchor this Provençal spread, while anchovies add umami depth and fresh herbs brighten the whole thing. Pulse it together, drizzle olive oil in slowly, then use it on crostini, with cheese, or stirred into grain bowls.
